Steven Zevitas Editor and Publisher Given the amount of time that Staci has based her career in Chicago, it would be fair to say that she has an almost unparalleled knowledge of the city’s contemporary art scene and its legacy. Chicago has always played a vital role in the art world, and, especially with its best-known aesthetic export, Chicago Imagism, has made a strong mark on visual culture. Over the past twenty years, as a number of home-grown artists such as Theaster Gates, Rashid Johnson, Kerry James Marshall, and Amy Sherald have become internationally recognized, the city’s stature in realm of the visual arts has only increased. There are now many significant artists who call Chicago their home and a number of world-class institutions and commercial galleries that support their efforts.

Page 1 Noteworthy: Mary Jones Juror’s Pick p76 Iowa-based Mary Jones seems an apt choice to single out within this Midwest painting context. Though she has worked as an artist for more than forty years, her work continues to be timely, significant, and downright charming. Jones goes on walks to get to know her urban environment and maps her impressions and experiences of these journeys. Using street maps as the background and framing device, she fills her compositions with photographs, collage elements, text fragments, and exaggerated drawings of herself as the flaneuse, as well as people she encounters. Multiple perspectives intermingle in these portraits of place, which celebrate the act of observing as well as moving one’s body through space as an act of acquaintance. In this digital age, when you can stay inside and still feel connected to individuals, institutions, and cultures around the globe through screens, Jones’s work encourages the effort to put yourself out there. Celeste Rapone Editor’s Pick p138 I have been a fan of Celeste Rapone’s work since first encountering it in 2013, the year she was first represented in New American Paintings. She has always been a gifted painter, but over the past few years her work has become more formally complex and taken on a searing psychological resonance. The subjects of Rapone’s work, which are mostly women, find themselves in physically impossible positions, squeezed tightly into the boundaries of the picture plane. They are paintings about doubt, insecurity, and vulnerability; they are about the familiar and the unfamiliar; they are about the struggles we all face in our lives and the myriad ways in which we move beyond them.
